This week, 5th grade students from #EastSideElementarySchool took the next step in their #AmazingShake journey, demonstrating confidence, communication and #leadership skills along the way! Through professional conversations, firm handshakes and real world scenarios, students impressed guest judges with their poise and professionalism.
👏 #Congratulations to these outstanding #students for their hard work and dedication! The life skills they are developing, including confidence, communication and leadership, will continue to benefit them both in and out of the classroom for years to come.

Recently, students from #CommunityHighSchool’s Medical Therapeutics class, led by instructor Kaycee Martin, hosted a Stuffie Clinic for Pre-K students at #CommunityElementarySchool. High school #students performed checkups on stuffed animals brought in by the younger students, including vital signs, height and weight measurements and quick assessments. 🩹❤️🧸
Pre-K students also learned about healthy eating habits and proper mouth care in a fun and engaging environment. 🍎🥦🦷
This hands on activity allowed Medical Therapeutics students to demonstrate the skills they have learned throughout the year, including communication with pediatric patients. Most importantly, both groups of students shared a fun and memorable experience together.💜💛
We love seeing our students learn, lead and make meaningful connections across our schools! ✨

Before their adventure, #students worked in small groups to research two zoo animals of their choice over the course of three weeks. Each group became “animal experts” and shared their discoveries with the class through creative presentations, including a fun “Family Feud” style game and engaging PowerPoints! 🎉📚
When the big day arrived, students couldn’t wait to spot the animals they had studied so closely. From preparation to presentation to exploration at the Zoo, this hands-on learning experience was unforgettable! 🐘🐒🦩
We are so proud of these students’ hard work, teamwork and enthusiasm for learning!💜💛

As part of the districtwide BCS America 250 Celebration (May 4 – May 15, 2026), and under the theme “Honoring the Past, Inspiring the Future,” 📚✨ schools are participating in a tiered engagement structure (Bronze, Silver, and Gold) designed to encourage flexible levels of student involvement.
In support of the Bronze Level engagement, students in Brynn Elliott's History Club at #CommunityHighSchool collaborated to create a timeline of American history from 1607–2025, successfully completing the Bronze requirement. This project highlights meaningful student learning in history, research and civic engagement 🏛️📖
The America 250 Celebration marks the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding and provides opportunities for #students to connect with history, civic responsibility and their community. 🤝
Schools are encouraged to participate at the Bronze Level or beyond, with optional Silver and Gold opportunities available for those wishing to deepen engagement. 🌟
We appreciate the efforts of our students and staff in bringing this districtwide celebration to life. 🎉

Recently, Misty Thompson’s first grade class at #CommunityElementarySchool teamed up with Cindy Friendman’s students at #CommunityHighSchool for a cross-grade project centered around friendly monsters. After listening to stories about friendly monsters, the first graders designed their own characters and wrote creative stories to match.🎨✏️
Using the students’ templates, Mrs. Friedman’s class brought the monsters to life by creating stuffed versions of each design 🧵🪡. The excitement continued when they visited the first graders to personally deliver the handmade stuffies 🤝💛. #Students then read their stories aloud and compared their creations to the finished stuffed monsters, each one uniquely matched their original designs!
This project showcased creativity, #teamwork and meaningful connections between students of all ages 🌟👏. Check out these wonderful moments and friendly monsters!
